Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger played for the first and likely only time this preseason Saturday night against the Colts. He played two series, finished 6 for 9 for 73 yards and led the Steelers to a field goal drive.
It was a bland performance in a bland game and received a bland response from Roethlisberger afterward.
“I’m ready for the regular season,” Roethlisberger said.
He speaks for just about everyone. The Steelers play their final preseason game Thursday in Carolina and Roethlisberger isn’t expected to play along with many other starters.
The Steelers didn’t put together a very intricate game plan for the Colts because they’ll play them again at Heinz Field in November.
